Red cherry, currants. Not a perfect pairing with the Nomad pizza (turtuffo with mushroom and truffle oil and a pork and fig pizza). But a nice wine, anyway.

Finally nailed what I don't quite like about this wine. I mean overall it's quite nice, with a healthy dose of fruit on the nose and the palate, even if the tannins are a touch thin. But the wine has some lingering "green" flavors that are not particularly appealing, as if the fruit just wasn't quite ripe enough.

From a case of magnums: 1 left Decanted for 30 mins, nose and taste a bit muted, no flaws. After one hour, bouquet of dark cherries, currants. Acidity holds this wine together at 9 years. Nice finish, not short, will age at least another 2-3 years from magnum. Drink now if in 750mL.

Very nice bottle, just entering it's drinkability window, needs some air time to fully develop. Nice now with a 1-2 hour decant. No hurry to drink these up but enjoyable now none the less.

Started thin but quickly showed a rich bouquet. Still a touch thin on the finish.
